This made sense when i went to bed last “night” and maybe it doesn’t but I managed to dwell on something that might not make sense for less than a day which might constitute a form of progress.
i used to end up at a lot of bad local comedy shows because my brother was involved with them, and the worst comedians invariably became his close friends and also had the worst opinions. None of them have been recruited into the government as of this time but surely that is something to aim for.
then i eventually remembered that fringo and the belligerant gnomes and their preferred hang-out spot were directly inspired by having to attend those comedy/band shows and the awful people i encountered there, so i might as well have drawn fringo as the comedian here. plainly i was going for the same traits. The gnomes may have slightly elevated senses of fashion.
